Hey everyone, so basically I lost my maintained status two months ago and my open work permit application was refused (because it was a permit that I couldn't renew but I didn't know it at the time).
I applied for the IEC young professional and got accepted. I did a flag pole but the agent told me that they cannot deliver me the IEC permit because I should've leave the country, and that the flag pole doesn't count as leaving Canada.
He also told me that I should apply to restore my status even though it will be refused for sure as I cannot extend my former permit.
Problem is that the website is telling me that I cannot restore it based on my answers.
I took a plane ticket to go back to my country and if I survive (Haiti), I'll go back to Canada and try to get the IEC permit at the border.
I'm just scared that the agent at the airport will refuse my IEC because I stayed 2 months after losing my maintained status even though there's supposed to be a 3 months window to re-apply.
I've been studying and working in Canada entirely legally for the past 10 years, payed a ton of taxes and they want to kick me out so easily, it's so frustrating.....
